Sharing some treats I made.

  I finished wrapping caramels this morning before I headed to work so I could finish up the fun mugs I did for my daughters youth group leaders for Christmas this year.I am making a baked potato bar for them for dinner tonight so I wanted to have this done for them.
   I did a simple tag with spellbinders tag die and the stamp set that came with it.I added some holly leaves and a few dots of red glitter berry's and tied the tags on with some bakers twine and a red jungle bell. The mugs were a find I got a Michel's at the end of summer for .90 each. I added a hot coco mix and some candy canes as well as my homemade caramels.
    I hope you find some time to do a little something something for someone special this holiday season.
    Have a Blessed Christmas.

Glassine cookie bag gifts

I made some homemade spritz cookies and wanted a way to give these buttery goodies so I used a glassine bag to put them in and then added a simple ornament tag I made with spellbinders dies and a candy cane.They were very fast and simple to do.I almost forgot I added a little sparkle with a rhinestone.
  Thanks for stopping and I hope this give you a fun and fast idea to wrap up some buttery treats of your own.

Just Rite stampers challenge projects

 Here are some projects I did for a recycle or re-purpose challenge over at Just Rite Stamps. I had some things laying around just waiting for a new life. One was a tree candy box, the other was a drink flavor container and the other was some corrugated paper I had in a package. I hope you like what I came up with.
